Intracom Telecom has announced the extension of collaboration with Open Fiber. Open Fiber is working together with Intracom Telecom for the achievement of the EU Gigabit society target supported by relevant European initiatives.
Since 2019, Open Fiber has been delve in the use of FWA for rural networks in Italy, with an extensive deployment. In 2022 it took part to the tender for “Italia 1 Giga” plan and was awarded by the Italian government the rollout in eight provinces.
An important step was achieved by the two companies completing the field tests at one of Open Fiber’s commercial sites in Puglia, South Italy. The WiBAS G5 dual-BS hub and G5 GigaConnect terminals operating at 28 GHz demonstrated performance results delivering 1 Gbps at 5km distance.
FWA technology enables deployment in areas with minimal telecommunication infrastructure and Intracom Telecom’s WiBAS G5 dual-BS and WiBAS G5 GigaConnect platforms at 28 GHz stand out as they are designed to deliver Gigabit connectivity at extended ranges with carrier grade quality of service. Intracom Telecom’s FWA platforms feature advanced algorithms for dynamic capacity allocation, maximising concurrent subscriber connections and automations to expedite terminal installation and service provisioning. With reliability and design, the WiBAS G5 product family is deployable and maintainable even in challenging terrains.
Kartlos Edilashvili, an acting CEO of Intracom Telecom, expressed his enthusiasm for supporting Open Fiber’s ambitious initiative to introduce Gigabit connectivity to Italian citizens, especially those in rural areas. He emphasised the crucial role operators must play in the economic and social progress of the countries they operate in, usingcutting-edge technology to enhance citizens’ quality of life. Mr. Edilashvili is confident that the partnership with Open Fiber will set an example for other organisations to follow and include FWA technologies in their network expansion strategy, making a substantial contribution to realising the EU directive for Gigabit connectivity in the years to come.
